CPI-M today condemned the incident where a woman was allegedly paraded half-naked upon suspicions that she had committed murder and said such an incident is "derogatory and insulting".

"In last 11 months of BJP rule, the atrocities against women have risen unprecedentedly and the situation is beyond control for the new government", Vasudev, CPI-M functionary said in a statement here.

"This is the BJP's deteriorating law and order situation specially when there is a woman Chief Minister Vasundhra Raje", he said.

On Nov 8, a 45-year-old woman was allegedly paraded half-naked on a donkey by some Panchayat members at Thuravad village in Rajsamand district here on the suspicion of being involved in a murder case.
 

"Senior officers of the Rajsamand district and cops should be made accountable for this incident which is highly derogatory and insulting," he said.

CPI-M would send a team of party functionary from Udaipur to take factual report, he said, adding, neither woman nor kids are safe in the present regime in the state.
